Also for the engine idle issues a throttle body sync sorted about 95% of my problems with that. Only problems I still have is that she isn't really fond of cold starting and it takes a little convincing in the mornings.

Man.  Minus 30c here and this thread reminds me that spring is slowly coming.  Not much to update on the build other than a couple of parts came over the last couple months.  I picked up some cheap clip-ons that I'm going to experiment with.  I'm also thinking about chopping a few inches from the end of each pipe to better line them up with the back of the bike.  I also need to adjust their mounting to the bracket.

I'm toying with the idea of a lowered headlamp / gauges and cleaning up the front of the bike somewhat, maybe even picking up a motoscope pro and replace the stock gauges completely.

Anyway maybe someone has debated some of these changes before and can chime in.

Cheers.
